about grief
coping with grief
Grief can be hard for anybody to cope with. There is a lot of misinformation about loss and grieving, that sometimes leaves people feeling they are not grieving in the “right way”.
bereavement by substance use
We know that when the bereavement is related to the use of alcohol or drugs, it can be even more difficult to grieve. This can be because of the pressures of coping with the person’s alcohol or drug use when they were alive, the circumstances of their death, or stigma relating to drug and alcohol use.
the effects of grief
Grief is not always straightforward, and different factors can mean that a loss might deeply affect you in complex ways and for a long time.
